Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1459

Chapter 1459 Awake

"Mr. Sawyer, what did you mean in the text message?" Hathaway's voice sounded nervous over the phone.

Nicholas held his phone and said lightly, "It meant exactly what it's supposed to mean." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a long pause on the other end of the phone. It was only a moment later that her slightly hoarse voice was heard, "Where did you find my daughter, and where is she now?"

"I think you should ask her father if you want to know where your daughter is. I believe he knows better than I do." Then, he hung up the phone without a moment of hesitation.

Hathaway went to find Rorion the moment she put down her phone.

Rorion came down to the brightly lit living room from upstairs wearing a sleeping gown. He stared at her in surprise as she looked out of sorts and frowned. "Why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night? What are you doing at my house?"

She did not respond. Instead, she walked quickly to his side. "Rorion, is Kathleen still alive?" She grabbed his arm tightly as she asked eagerly. Obviously, the out-of-the-blue question startled him, and he denied it firmly in a heartbeat, "Why are you asking me this? You should know better than I do that Kathleen is dead. Didn't you watch her being buried?"

"But Mr. Sawyer told me that she is not dead. He's not the kind of person who would lie!" She shook her head vigorously, not realizing that Rorion's expression had changed dramatically because of her words.

"Who? Nicholas?"

"Yes, it was him!" She nodded.

Rorion quickly took out his phone to contact Kathleen as he felt that things were getting out of control, but there was no answer, and he began to feel uneasy. Hathaway, who noticed his expression, finally realized something was wrong. The news came from Nicholas, but how would he know if her daughter wasn't dead?
